The coupled dynamics and kinetics between gas and plasma in the divertor region is studied by means of a one-dimensional Particle in Cell-Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (PIC-DSMC) model. In particular, the collision-induced vibrational excitation/relaxation of H2 molecules and particle-surface interaction (vibrational relaxation and recombinative desorption) have been considered in detail to estimate the importance of plasma volumetric recombination by molecular assisted reaction (MAR). Spatially resolved results show that MAR processes are effective very close to the divertor plate in a region smaller than 1.5Â mm from the divertor plate. For regions more distant the ionization of atoms, produced by MAR, starts to make molecular assisted recombination an ineffective reaction.
Highlights⺠We have studied the coupling among gas, plasma and surface in the divertor region. ⺠A one-dimensional PIC-DSMC model has been developed. ⺠Profiles of density and temperature of all the species involved have been provided. ⺠MAR processes are effective in a region smaller than 1.5 mm from the divertor plate. ⺠For regions more distant, the ionization of atoms, produced by MAR, starts to occur.
